Seeing that Mu Xiaocheng didn't believe him, Mu Heng sighed heavily again.
He turned around, his back to Mu Xiaocheng, and said to himself, "Child, I know Ji Huaishen is very good to you."
“You two have a deep relationship, and you like him. The reason I’m so eager to find evidence is also for your sake.”
"If what happened back then was only related to Ji Hanfeng, and if CASO is on the right path now, then I won't do anything to Ji Huaishen. After all, it's a matter of the previous generation, and it won't involve you."
Mu Xiaocheng stood there, gazing at the light drizzle outside the window: "So, what can I do to help you?"
Have we found any so-called evidence?
She knew very well that all she could do now was wait, wait for Ji Huaishen to come back.
Mu Heng shook his head, turned around, and looked at his daughter.
"Silly child, although I haven't fulfilled my responsibilities as a father all these years and don't understand you, I know that you must be feeling bad right now."
"If it really was Ji Huaishen's father who caused our family's ruin, how would you face him? If his CASO has been engaging in illegal activities, what would you do then?"
Mu Xiaocheng did not speak.
She lowered her eyes and stared at the ground, which shone brightly under the light.
It's a bit dazzling.
Mu Xiaocheng blinked and slowly said, "I don't know."
Although she had already given an answer, a voice inside her kept telling her.
You must trust Ji Huaishen.
Just trust him.

Chi Yan was getting a little anxious waiting outside. Her sister-in-law had been inside for quite a while, why hadn't she come out yet?
Was my sister-in-law shocked by the truth?
Or is Uncle Mu trying to sow discord between his sister-in-law and brother?
Regardless of which guess it is, it seems... pretty bad.
Chi Yan took out her phone and glanced at the time on it.
His brother has been gone for almost two days. He was supposed to come back today, but he hasn't returned yet.
Could something have happened?
This is really a headache.
Chi Yan turned her questioning gaze to Shang Qi, who was standing to the side.
He walked over to Shang Qi, patted him on the shoulder, and asked, "Little Qi, is there any news from my brother?"
Shang Qi was so disgusted by the term "Little Qi Qi" that he swallowed hard and said, "The matter on Mr. Chi's side has been almost completely investigated, and he is already on his way back. Young Master Chi, there is no need to worry."
Hearing Shang Qi's reply, Chi Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's good, that's good."
As long as his brother is alright, I believe he can handle these things.
But my sister-in-law's side...
This is really not a good situation.
Just as Chi Yan was in a dilemma, Mu Xiaocheng came downstairs.
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law."
Chi Yan stammered, unsure of what to say.
Mu Xiaocheng stared at Shang Qi and said in a serious tone, "Where is Ji Huaishen?"
"The gentleman is on his way back."
Shang Qi answered truthfully.
"I'll go pick him up," Mu Xiaocheng said, and then prepared to leave with her car keys.
However, Shang Qi stopped him.
"Madam, I'm afraid you have something else to do now."
"What?"
Mu Xiaocheng paused, her eyes narrowing dangerously involuntarily.
Shang Qi lowered his head and said respectfully, "Zhou Ningyi turned herself in and confessed to the whole process of killing your mother. Lou Quzheng is aware of this."
“He is determined to avenge your mother, so we suspect that Zhou Ningyi’s life is in danger.”
